General information
I was born in Rapla County. I chair the European Union Affairs Committee in the Riigikogu. I am a Member of the Board of the Estonian national energy corporation Eesti Energia, and Tallinna airport. I love sports and a healthy lifestyle. I think that Estonia should be better connected to Europe: we need to finish constructing Rail Baltic, additional power connections with Latvia, Balticconnector, and a regional LNG-terminal in cooperation with Finland.
